Summary0021647: Show Hack Response Strength next to Duration
DescriptionIs there a way to pre-calculate the estimated enemy hacking response on normal hacks?

(I'd like to see just how many thousands of strength the Dark Spire sends against me to estimate when I will finally be able to destroy these stupid Vengeance Generators...)

I've made the game estimate the difficulty of a hack, then colour in the time estimate based on that estimate. Definitely needs some feedback to see how reasonable the estimates are.

If you have feedback (for example "This hack was really easy but flagged as Orange or Red" or "This hack was flagged as grey but was really hard") then please give me a save game and the hack/planet in question

Ok, gonna test this once 0.900 is out, though I think different colors are too vague. How about a strength number estimating the response. It's much more easy to see if you can or can't do this if you have somewhat solid numbers.

I don't want to show an actual number because it's just a difficulty estimate done via heuristic. I can't show an actual Strength amount or anything like that.

Edit: Also I want this to be vague; I can justify a vague estimate in Lore, but definitely not a concrete "This is how hard it will be "
